Exactly this. A large proportion of the energy used by data centers ends up as heat, it shouldn't just be dumped. I've read of data centers being used to heat community swimming pools. A thought I just had was if they are using mains water to cool the data center, what stops it still being used for domestic use? It would just be warm water, which in many cases would be a benefit.

I'd prefer the title to be "Jury Nullification due to a Pre-existing condition."

(Not US). I was burnt by Sony's Mini disc DRM BS, so when iTunes came along I recognised the slimy DRM and steered well clear so much so I have never owned an apple device much less bought music from them.

Definitely tetchy. Maybe he should go to his Rwanda safespace to calm down.

The car doesn't have a flat tyre, it's actually in the parking space unlike the truck..

Once it is clearly proven you can work remotely, a commute to the office should be viewed as a site visit with the travel time being on the clock and travel costs reimbursed. If they do that, then yeah sure I'll listen to podcasts for an hour a day, anything else should be looked at as the pay cut it actually is. ((Travel time x hourly wage)+travel costs).
